Spirulina, isn’t this word sounds like very familiar to you here? Yep, Spirulina is the name for human and animal food supplements. It’s almost similar with the Chlorella and Blue Green Algae as well!

Do you know that Spirulina is a cyanobacteria, where is a type of microorganism has been found from 3.5 to 2.8 billion years ago (Of course, it’s hundred times older than Homo sapiens did! lol)

There are two different types of Spirulina, which as:

1. Arthrospira platensis, and
2. Arthrospira maxiam.




Many researches have been done on Spirulina, and the researchers found that Spirulina is good to boost up animal and human being’s immune system. It has the ability to increase production of anti-inflammatory chemical known as interferon and interleukins.

Furthermore, Spirulina also can help to:

• Prevent assorted types of allergies,
• Prevent cancer (It can release a substance named tumor necrosis factor alpha that attack tumor/cancer cells).
• Regulate and maintain diabetics’ blood sugar in an optima level.

The one more important thing here is Sprulina has been recognized as one of the branded superfoods. Hence, you should intake it regularly to keep you stay away from any form of diseases.

Excellent information Wilson, but it doesn't look too tasty, but I'm sure the rabbits would like it.

But it does seem to have a host of good health effects.

Nah, I don't think you're a weirdo, Jason! Everyone has their own choice to choose what they want to eat here. After all, seaweed and spirulina have been listed into the "Superfoods" category, where is has no harmless to your body, but tons of healthy benefits...

Diva, it's good for you health, but first of all, can you withstand with the taste, as some of the spirulina might have a very strong "Fishy taste" on it!
